Old Hollywood Star Eva Marie Saint, 102, Credits This Easy Thing For Her Longevity

It's not every day that someone reaches 100, but Eva Marie Saint has and is continuing to thrive. The Old Hollywood starlet reached the age of 102 in July 2026, and she doesn't show any signs of slowing down in her life. Similar to how Ellyn Burstyn says this wellness habit is the reason she's "still kicking" in her 90s, Saint has a few secrets of her own on how she's lived this long. And she's more than willing to share how she's maintained her physical and mental well-being.

Saint revealed that she is still pretty active in her daily life. "I continue to take walks out in the fresh air, like watching baseball — especially the Los Angeles Dodgers, and enjoy time with my family and friends," she exclusively shared with People. The "North by Northwest" star stated that she generally has nothing to complain about and that life has treated her well. But Saint added that she doesn't "feel 100 years old" and that she feels as young as ever. And while she's in her 100s, the lively Saint could certainly be compared to these celebs in their 90s that are still so radiant today.

Eva Marie Saint certainly appears stunning for her age, but the "On the Waterfront" star laid the groundwork decades before by sticking to her beauty routine. She always made the effort to wash the makeup on her face completely off, taking special attention especially when it was time to step in front of the camera. In an exclusive interview with Lydia Lane in 1957, Saint detailed her skincare routine. After washing her face, she followed up "with a hot towel to open the pores, wash and rinse it again and follow with lots of cold water", before finishing off with a simple moisturizer. 

But Saint revealed that she doesn't just rely on skincare products to take care of her skin. In her mind, what you put into your body will reflect on your skin. As such, the Oscar winner was very meticulous and particular about her meals. "I know that the condition of my skin also depends on my diet ... I try to include the essential foods every day," she candidly shared with the reporter. It's a crucial detail that's easily forgotten when it comes to skin maintenance, but it's certainly paid dividends for Saint in the long run.
